SLUG & LETTUCE
#85, Free in person or for postage through mail, 15” x 11”, 20 pgs.
By Kurt Morris
Another solid issue of Slug & Lettuce. Contains the typical columns, zine reviews, and music reviews.
|
|
SLTM
#22, $?, 8½” x 11”, ? pgs.
By Kurt Morris
This might very well be one of the worst zines I’ve ever read. And in reality none of it is horrible, but, combined, it just seemed to add up to something intolerable.
|
|
PUNK PAGAN
#4, Free, 5½” x 8½”, 43 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
So, yeah, this dude loves the punk and he loves the paganism, among other things.
|

So Danny goes to thrift stores looking for old yearbooks. When he finds one, he sketches twenty-four pages worth of the people in them.
|
|
OX FANZINE
#64, $4.50, glossy/perfect-bound, 140 pgs.
By Keith Rosson
What can I say about this one? It’s massive, impeccably laid out, in full-color—but is restrained and tasteful in its use of said color—features about a trillion interviews with everyone from Penny Rimbaud of Crass to Boy Sets Fire to Mike Park of Asian Man Records to a bunch of bands I’ve never even heard of.
|
|
OBLIVIOUS NATION
Winter 2005, $?, 8½” x 5½”, copied, 48 pgs.
By Kurt Morris
Based out of the East Bay area, the zine covers Miss Oblivious’s life and times, including her punk rock wedding ceremony, some record reviews, lots of pictures of friends and her family, and so on.
|
|
NOSE KNOWS!, THE
Vol. 2, #’s 3-6, $?, 8½” x 11”, folded a few times
By Guest Contributor
Kind of all over the place, but interesting, and not too incoherent.
|
|
NEGATIVE REACTION
$5, 7½” x 10½”, 35 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
I sometimes wish I’d been raised in the U.K., because then I could use awesome U.K. slang without sounding like a wee blimey cunt.
|
|
MAXIMUM ROCK AND ROLL
#273, $4, 8½” x 11”, many, many pgs.
By Guest Contributor
It would appear as though you’re reading Razorcake. That leads me to believe you’ve probably read MRR at least once in your life.
|
|
GO METRIC
#20, $2, 8½” x 11”, copied, 80 pgs.
By Keith Rosson
Most of this was pretty funny or at least entertaining—much like watching my cats fight one another—so no harm here.
|
|
LADYSCIENTIST
#1, $2, 8½” x 11”, Xeroxed, 34 pgs.
By greg
As the title suggests, this is a zine about women in science. It’s made by a biochemistry graduate student from Canada named Susan P. Bustos.

GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS
#2, $3ppd., 8½” x 11”, 35 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
The guy who wrote this, one Shannon Colebank, says it best: “The so-called ‘reviewers’ who will inevitably purposely take a few lines out of context, project their paranoid self-hatred onto them, and then flat-out lie to their readers…never ceases [sic] to astonish and appall me.”
|
|
KICKING AND SCREAMING
#12, $3.95, 8½” x 11”, glossy, 64 pgs.
By Keith Rosson
First look, the cover lineup reads pretty well: interviews with everyone from John Holstrom (the founder of Punk magazine) to Broken Bones, Four Letter Word, Curtis of Taang Records and tons more.
|
|
AT BOTH ENDS
#7, $2 plus shipping, 8 ½” x 11”, cold web press, 88 pgs.

I don’t think I’ve ever met a Canadian I didn’t like. The folks behind At Both Ends continue the trend.
